Possible Mortal Kombat Remake??!

Wow this looks something serious! I’ve been a MK fan for years since the early Ninetendo and Sega years. The Mortak Kombat Short starring Jeri Ryan as Sonya Blade and Michael Jai White as Jax. The short, which clocks in just under eight minutes, is a more gruesome depiction of the video game franchise and is chock full of gore and Saw-like cinematography.

Ryan confirmed on her Twitter that the film was done as a favour to her director friend, Kevin Tancharoen, to help him sell his vision to Warner Bros. Tancharoen has had a less-than-stellar track record having directed the Fame remake as well as the MTV-reality show Dancelife.

But if this short becomes a feature full-length, it may very well redeem Tancharoen’s spotty CV as well as inject some life into the ailing video-game-to-live-action mode of film-making.
